Is it possible to place (say 1000) markers (using set of LAT-LONG values) on Static Google map image?
Also, is there some sort of HTTP POST method to achive this or URL is the only way to go?
Basically, I was looking into Bing maps REST service - Imagery and I found that maximum 100 pushpins (markers) can be placed on to Bing map.
I would like to generate static map with unlimited markers/pushpins. Google or Bing does not matter.

Add a place A map can have up to 10,000 lines, shapes, or places.
As you discovered, there is no specific limit.
There is no limit to the number of markers or path vertices supported by the Google Static Maps API.
The use of markers in the map is quite limited but you can put up to 50 markers on a map in 10 different colors and in 3 different sizes with an optional letter in it on the map.
As far as I know there is no limit on how many markers you can add to a google-maps based map - however the performance of your map will decrease when you add a lot of them.
There is a nice article on developers.google.com (https://developers.google.com/maps/articles/toomanymarkers) that shows how to deal with lots of placemarks by either clustering them or rendering them on a separate layer.
